Day 20 09.02.13

6.00am (RD)

"At the centre of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want" - Lao Tzu

Practicing Scorpion - scary but love it. 

Great morning for yoga - 22 people up nice and early to get our workout on. I was front row with Miss Brooke and another regular Tegan - it was good cause we were all so still and focused. 

Twice Regi made her way next to me to help me with postures - I love it cause I dont even know what i'm meant to look like half the time. During spine strengthening series she helped me with Full Locust (again)...I know now to move my arms UP first then bring them back towards the backside of the room and the other posture but I cant remember what it was.
I just noticed today that my skin is feeling amazing and I think my arms are getting more shape - yay I want sexy arms! Regi complimented me on my standing bow - only my right leg is able to come super high but I am working on my left leg more each class. 

The heat is non existent to me these last few weeks, I only feel like Im dying is when my heart is racing after coming out of a posture (Balancing Stick). I am feeling amazing though, this yoga has really made me learn to focus more at work and my self confidence has improved. 

I cant believe I only have 10 days left...I will miss being there every day but good things to happen on my mini holiday to Melbourne / Avalon. 

Until tomorrow x

Day 19 08.02.13

5.30pm (RD)

HAPPY SMILING FACES FRIDY EVERYONE!

Ohhh what a great way to finish the week with a session in the hot room! 37 degrees is perfect for me!
This week has gone so super fast it felt like a 4 day week. I am feeling great but for some reason I always seem to yawn in Pranyamana breathing in Regis classes. I don't remember doing yawning in other teachers classes but hers...I don't know what it is? Im not bored...maybe relaxed?

I like having different teachers and listening to their teaching technique and how they put different spins on their dialogue...one saying Regi says around the end of the class "Alright newbies, we just finished warm up, are you warm enough to start doing some yoga now?" and "initiation for newbies is human pyramid with first timers on top"...always gets a laugh or look of panic from some :)

Great turn out in class tonight. Alot of people love to come and clear their head after a crazy work week, I know I do.

I will some more on here tomorrow as its already 11pm and I have class at 6am :)

Ok so last nights class was great...I think I will leave it there and write on todays class (Day 20).
